[[AC:Shanghai Noon]]



* Despite their ignorance, the willingness of Jedadiah and his pioneer family to help the Imperial Guards, (Be they "Injuns", [[BaitAndSwitchComment Jews]], or whatever) is kinda impressive for the time. As is their attempt to meet them halfway when it comes to culture, as shown with the'shalom'. Considering the language barrier, and the fact that moving all your stuff in a covered wagon is already tough, exhausting, and dangerous, it was awfully nice of them to help out.

[[AC: Shanghai Knights]]
* Chon Lin runs into UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper on a bridge. He attacks her and she easily dispatches him, knocking him over the bridge and calling him a "[[SymbolSwearing $%^&ING]] LOSER!"
* Jackie Chan vs. Donnie Yen. What more can you ask?
** [[RetroactiveRecognition Nowadays]], this movie can be summed up as "Jackie Chan fights Film/IpMan and [[Series/GameOfThrones Littlefinger.]]"
** Lin taking out Chow with a rocket.
* An awesome moment goes to Rathbone in the last fight where he proves why he has the title of "Finest Swordsman of England". He ''completely dominates'' the fight from start to end and Chon only wins because he's ballsy enough to TakeAThirdOption.
** How Chon beats Rathbone is itself pretty impressive. He convinces Rathbone to one more round and then proceeds [[TakingYouWithMe slice the ropes holding their platform]]. Thankfully, Roy saves Chon while Rathbone falls to his death.
